For me, it shows the escape sequence "\342\204\242" which is what you're seeing.
I dragged both folders to Terminal to replicate the command I was attempting to execute in RB. Here's what the Terminal window shows: cp -R /Users/dennis/Desktop/Help\ Folder/images/ /Users/dennis/Desktop/Power\342\204\242/contents/ It executes successfully from Terminal (i.e. the contents are copied). _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives of this list here: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
